LAMP AND REFLECTOR HOLDER:

citizen of the l'nited States. residing at Chicago. in the county of Cook and State of Illinois. have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lamp and Reflector Holder of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in brackets for supportin electric lamps and reflectors. and the'especial object of my improvements. is to produce a bracket that can capable of a wide range of adjustments, and one that will aii'ord a firm support for both lamp and reflector. I Other objects of general utilitv are conserved by my invention as will be apparent.

In the accompanving drawing which i forms a part of this application :1'*i e u1.'e 1 3 a view partlv in section and partlv in side elevation showingimv intention applied to an electric lamp and reflector: Figs. 2 and 3 show diii'erent adjustments of the bracket: Fig: l a section through the view of the bracket; 6 is a plan view of the locking device.

(t represents the bracket. and same consists of a piece of flat metal bent to the arc of a circle for a portion of its length. and having one end bent to form an attaching foot (2 through which screw holes are formed. The curved portion is provided with a longi -i tndinal slot a and the'outer ends have inwardly extending lugs n which partially Mounted in. the slot (1 is an attachment 5 for securing lamp-sockets (as it) to the l bracketand forlocking the parts on a rei flecto'r (as 7). This attachmentconsists of a tubular bolt' 3') which is provided with an i annular flange b and is externally threaded between the flange and end-to receive a nutl c. The threaded portion of the bolt is fiat.- toned on oppositesides as at b to provide Specification of letters Patent.

slotted portion of the bracketand to prevent the bolt from turning on its axis.

Slidably mounted on the bolt is a sleeve d one end of which is externally threaded and carries a cup-shaped washer al and the other end has a metal collar d fixed thereon. Between the collar and the washer are arranged two rubber gaskets e, 6 betweenwhich the reflector f is clamped.

washer or gasket e is pushed along the f sired to use the device in connection with a reflector, and the gasket 6 and washer a are then applied the latter being screwed up i until the reflector is firmly clamped between 'the twogaskets.

2-. An electric lamp and reflector supporting device consisting of a'bree'ket having a slotted curved portion, a flanged tubular bolt slidebly adjustable in said slotted bracket, a sleeve arranged on said bolt and threaded at one end and having a collar at the other end, a washer engaging the threaded portion of said sleeves, gaskets arranged 10 on said bolt between said washer and collar and a nut ucljustably mounted on said bolt. In testimony \vl'lereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
